B18 Armored Boots

Post by Evan Stelf » 24 Apr 2016, 22:08

Summary: I've noticed that specialists who have the B18 armored set on get armored gloves, but no boots. I feel like this is not a complete set, since you get everything but new boots.

Benefits: Specialists who wear this armor won't get meta foot slashed. Also it gives a point to wearing B18 armor since you won't die in 2 slashes from a lost foot.

Details: When you redeem the specialist B18 armor, in the crate you get armored boots as well as the rest of the set.

Implementation: Should be implemented in the vendor with the rest of the items.

+1. I still think B18 is the worst possible choice. Ever. But yes.

+1. As a lover of the B18, I can express that charging up with my thick ass armor and machete'ing some fukken acidic xeno into submission is the highlight of my game. As rare as feet slashing are for me, it could be situationally useful, and a feature that makes sense.

Neutral
Huggers take out B18's more often than anything else. I can see the benefit though, I suppose.

+1
Being safe from leg slashing would make this much less of a poor investment.

1+ SHouldn't be hard to develop because they're just boots. If jack boots can be makeable then so can B18 armored boots.

+1. Makes sense. I don't see why they'd make armored gloves and not armored boots to begin with. It's not viable considering in a real combat situation all one would have to do to take out the tank with the B18 would be shoot them in the foot.

+1, it seems that slashing is making a comeback and having some reinforced shins would be mighty helpful.

I already think the B18 is the second worst Spec item to take (Smartgun takes #1), yet I think this would be a good addition.

+1 When I play ravager I collect all the feet and legs I can and this while it would stop me from collecting my legs would make B18 worth it to take against a ravager like me

B18 armor is the best spec item to have, you got armor protection from almost every xeno, you can even goddamn counter a crusher and a ravanger Image

and remember, you always have the machete and shield to go rambo and kill anything you see, but there needs to be a way to fix the B18 helmet because its a pretty important since you can't rush to the aliens with a broken helmet, all my +1 for this one

I've looked into the values. This is not necessary. Edit: on a second thought, this is possible.

These are probably coming, so I'm going to resolve this and lock. Not sure when, but B18 will likely functional as a full set of armor.
